Part of being in the adventure of homeschooling and raising a family is staying healthy. When I eat healthy, I feel better and am able to function better in everything that I do. I found “Trim Healthy Mama” awhile ago and I love eating this way. What I love about Trim Healthy Mama is that it is not a diet, its a way of eating for life. I love to eat, I love all kinds of variety of food and enjoy trying different things, I have no desire to diet. Trim Healthy Mama is the perfect fit for me because its all about starting a healthy lifestyle.
Trim Healthy Mama was started by two sisters who wanted to get healthy and eat the amazing food that God has provided for us. They have 18 kids between them and desired not only a healthy lifestyle for themselves but for their families as well. The Trim Healthy Mama method is eating protein with every meal but not mixing your carbs and fats. They call them S and E meals. If you are having an S meal, you are having protein with fats. An example of this would be a cheesy omelette or steak and vegetables. If you are having an E meal then you are having your protein with carbs. An example of this would be oatmeal with fruit or a turkey sandwich with all the fixings minus the cheese. What I love about this lifestyle of eating is that I am never going hungry, I am just changing the way I eat food. Trim Healthy Mama takes out all sugar but provides alternatives that are amazing. The natural sweeteners that I use instead of sugar keep you trim and you don’t miss the sugar.
The best way to understand the Trim Healthy Mama method is to read their book the “Trim Healthy Mama Plan”. It gives in detail the science behind the method and why it works. It also is a great guidebook on how to get started and how it works. Another benefit of the Trim Healthy Mama plan is that it is diabetic friendly. When you take out the sugar and don’t mix you carbs and fats, you are keeping your blood sugar from spiking. I personally know diabetics that are finding it helpful to eat on the Trim Healthy Mama plan. They also wrote their own cookbook, which is a great tool to have. They have many different recipes which takes the work out having to come up with it yourself. But my favorite thing that “Trim Healthy Mama” has created is their website membership. For 5 dollars a month, you get access to not only the recipes that THM has come up with but different bloggers as well. They have “THM television” which is the two sisters showing you how to make certain recipes. They also have different research behind the different methods that they use which are awesome for a research geek like me. Check out their website at www.trimhealthymama.com.
Trim Healthy Mama allows me to enjoy eating and feel great too. Its worth checking out!
